- Speaking of Tait Farms, they are having a pancake tasting featuring locally made pancakes from Burnt Cabins Grist Mill, serving them with maple and shagbark hickory syrups. While there, they encourage you to check out their garden seeds now for sale.

- Are you a producer of local foods? Bellefonte Farmers Market has openings for dairy and meat vendors for the 2015 season. Also, Lemont Farmers Market has some openings for vendors as well.
